"I evaluated the CableEye version 5 software demo and will be ordering the upgrade soon. The cable tester in our inspection department will find it helpful for identifying cable assembly problems and addressing them with the cable assemblers. Just a click of a button and the location of an open or short can be identified. The problem area can be highlighted and shown with or without the the rest of the cable connections. Also, I like the look of the new test screen. We have used the CableEye model M2 tester for about 10 years and have found it to be a very user friendly piece of test equipment. Thank you for the opportunity to check out the latest software."

"I wanted to firstly let you know that the new M3 is quite a hit in the lab and is used daily, if not almost constantly. It was primarily intended to test newly manufactured cables, however it is getting a lot of use helping 'reverse engineer' existing cables from older projects that lack documentation, saving further time and money. It is such a hit in fact that I have a request to look into the possibility of adding two more Item 823 M3-AEX expansion modules to add a total of 256 more points to our existing 512 point tester. Thanks again for your time and patient support. It seems to be paying off in satisfied users more and more every day."

"We have a lot of lab instruments that require custom cable pinouts and we were finding it difficult to identify and keep track of all the cables we use. We got CableEye and love it! It has been making our lives here so much easier when we are trying to figure out the pinouts to all our cables. Quickly identifying and being able to label all our cables was a major selling point for us!"

"I installed CableEye on this [Windows 98] computer and it works fine. Learning and testing are fast. Previous tester programming that I have done includes: Everett Charles CV50 (1978), Cirris (1990 to present), Ditmco (2000 to present), and Omnitester (2004 to present), so I am no stranger to continuity testing and even have created tests on Teradyne 18XX and GenRad 22XX In Circuit Testers. The CableEye is still simply amazing. I am so glad to have it and will consider buying a new M3 from Cami Research. Now that I know this unit functions as expected I will requisition the connector boards I need for my immediate custom application. Thank you for the topnotch support shown, and an impressive product."

We have very few problems with the equipment, and most problems that occur are corrected over the phone in a call to Tech Support. In one case, someone spilled a liquid on the tester, we returned the unit and received it back repaired within 24 hours. Test adapters are in stock and shipped in one or two days from the purchase date. CAMI Research provides excellent service on a product that is essential to our business.

As one of New Jersey's largest cable assembly houses, we really put these products to use. I think it's a real testament to you and your firm as to the quality and durability of your product. Our operators have grown so attached to the tester that they hated to see it replaced. Amazingly, the operators were able to learn the new Windows-based software you shipped us with the demo M3 model rather quickly and really liked the improvements you've made over the years.
Again, I just wanted to thank you and everyone at CAMI for helping us over the years by making our productivity and quality stand out among the industry. I believe this is now the 7th tester which we've purchased from CAMI and each one has surpassed all our expectations."

"We chose CableEye for its ability to handle cables with embedded resistors and diodes. It has performed quite well for us. The ability to adjust thresholds was critical as we have R values ranging from 3.3 ohms to 9.1 Megohms as well as diodes embedded. It has not disappointed.
The only problem we encountered was with an embedded IC which could look like a diode facing either direction (depending on the will of the electron Gods that day). Before I could call for help, CAMI notified us of a new software release. It allows me to account for this and not have the operator 'ignore' the error (nice mind reading CAMI).
This has proven to be fast, efficient and very good at finding intermittents which it nicely identifies to the pin level. I find this device to be a winner all around."

As the Quality Assurance Manager, also in charge of electrical testing of all PrimeSource products, I find the employment of the CableEye on our production floor has given us tremendous relief in man-hours and testing credibility. I no longer worry about the man-hours we will have to spend in performing point-to-point continuity testing of all our cables, harnesses, and other electrical assemblies that we supply to the telecommunications industry. With the CableEye, the man-hours spent for testing was dramatically reduced by about eighty percent (80%).
